Next Generation Guatemala to Guest Edit Special Issue of Maya America: Journal of Essays, Commentary, and Analysis
In collaboration with Maya America Journal of Essays, Commentary, and Analysis, Next Generation Guatemala will be compiling and publishing a special edition issue of the publication dedicated entirely to the Central American adoption experience. In honor of National Adoption Awareness Month, we are interested in putting the narrative of Central American adoption back into the adoptee’s hands, and sharing unfiltered stories from our community about our journeys with identity, home, and more. Who can submit? Submissions are open to everyone adopted from Central America! We welcome both finished and unfinished written pieces, with the available opportunity to work with an editor to develop your piece. Peer review for academic research papers is also available from Maya America. We also welcome submissions in all languages, not just limited to English or Spanish. We accept simultaneous submissions as well.
What can I submit? Examples of acceptable submissions include, but are not limited to:
Personal Essays
Articles
Academic Writing/Research
Poetry/Prose
Visual Art
Video Essays/Audio (to be published on a corresponding YouTube channel via Maya America.)
If there is a submission format that you do not see here that you would like to submit, feel free to reach out to us.
Deadline
Submissions will be open from November 1, 2021-January 1, 2022.
